DOI = Digital Object Identifier
Digital Identifier of an Object
DOI = Digital Object Identifier
Digital Identifier of an Object
DOI = Digital Object Identifier
Digital Identifier of an Object
Use DOIs to identify:
Content(As abstract works or particular versions)
Related objects(e.g. Agreements, participants in content exchange contracts, parties)
Content(e.g. Files, equipment, DVDs)
What’s special about DOIs?
A DOI identifies an object permanently, even if the object changes its location, its owner or other characteristicsThe DOI does this through redirection, using the Handle system
The object has metadata associated with it. This metadata describes the object in whatever detail is appropriate for a service. The minimum set is kernel data and more can be added.
DOIs are supported by the DOI Community to offer persistence.
How do DOIs work?
DOIs work across the internet
DOIs are created to an agreed International
Standard
DOIs are created to an agreed International
Standard
DOIs are allocated via Registration Agencies who manage the DOI records, maintain the databases of
metadata, and participate in the DOI Community
REGISTRATIONAGENCY
By creating metadata to a consistent standard, sharing and interoperability become possible, allowing users to build upon this value for commercial and operational
advantage
What do DOIs bring to your content?
Persistence
Interoperability
Extensibility
Platform independence
Dynamic updating
Multiple resolution
Class management
A DOI continues to point to the object it identifies even if the object is moved, updated or modified
Persistence
A common standard and agreed syntactical and semantic approach to metadata makes sharing data from different sources easier and more productive
Interoperability
Users can build on the standard to develop applications suited to their industry or sector
Extensibility
Allows data from different sources to be easily shared and facilitates multiple output formats
Platform independence
As DOIs are persistent, metadata can be added to or updated over time to further describe the object identified
Dynamic updating
A DOI can resolve to multiple items of data about an object.
• Locations; rights information; specific services; user-defined data ; etc.
• Any item can then be chosen to get appropriate information or deliver automated services
• New items of data can be added at any time
Multiple resolution
DOIs with similar properties can be grouped together as a class.
• The class can be managed as one thing, so all those DOIs can be easily accessed or modified
• New groupings can be made at any time, to create new services
Class management
